Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics and Stochastic Dynamics of a Bistable Catalytic Surface Reaction

Catalytic surface reaction networks exhibit nonlinear dissipative phenomena, such as bistability. Macroscopic rate law descriptions predict that the reaction system resides on one of the two steady-state branches of the bistable region for an indefinite period of time. However, the smaller the catal...
